Has anyone planted a decorative garden only with edibles?
Sunflower seeds make quite nice microgreens, I used ones for birdseed, much cheaper! Batchelors dried peas are the best for pea shoots.

Help With Growing Seeds
I think you end up with stronger plants by overwintering, maybe just my thinking, long time since I've grown them. Tbh.Fox gloves and wallflowers are a bit tougher IMO.
